🎈 Bubble Wrap & Plastic Films (Other Plastic Films, Bubble Wrap)
🌐 HS Code Reference & Customs Clearance Guide | 2026 Latest Tariff Analysis | Professional Clearance Strategy 📌 I. Product Definition & Classification: Do You Really Understand "Bubble Wrap"?
Bubble Wrap and Other Plastic Films are ubiquitous packaging materials in global logistics, e-commerce, and manufacturing. In international trade, they are often misunderstood as simple "plastic sheets," but their chemical composition, physical structure (e.g., bubble vs. flat), and end-use drastically change their HS Code classification and tariff liability.
⚠️ Key Distinction Point:
- Is it a flat, self-adhesive film? → Likely 3919.
- Is it a non-adhesive, flexible sheet/foil? → Likely 3920.
- Is it a finished decorative item (e.g., wall decor)? → Likely 3926.
- Does it have bubbles? While common, customs often classify based on the material and form (flat/rolled) under Chapters 39, unless specifically molded into a specific article (like a cushioned container) which might fall elsewhere. For standard rolls of bubble wrap, 3920 or 3919 are the primary battlegrounds.
📦 II. HS Code Classification Details (2026 Latest Tariff Authority Cross-Reference)
Based on the provided data, here are the specific classifications for "Other Plastic Wall Decor Films" and similar plastic films. Note that while the input mentions "Bubble Wrap," the provided <DATA> strictly lists "Other Plastic Wall Decor Films". We will analyze the codes provided in the context of plastic films.
| HS Code | Product Description | Application Scenario | Tariff Rate (Total) | Tax Detail Breakdown |
|---|---|---|---|---|
3919.90.50.60 |
Other plastic wall decor films, material: plastic, form: film, unspecified other flat plastic products | Generic plastic films, non-self-adhesive or self-adhesive wall coverings where no specific sub-heading fits | 40.8% | Base: 5.8%, Section 301: 25.0%, Section 122: 10% |
3919.10.20.55 |
Other plastic wall decor films, material: plastic, form: film, meets film characteristics, belongs to other categories | Self-adhesive plastic films or tapes used for decoration/wrapping | 40.8% | Base: 5.8%, Section 301: 25.0%, Section 122: 10% |
3920.99.20.00 |
Other plastic wall decor films, material: plastic, form: film, fits flexible film description of non-cellular/non-reinforced plastic | Non-cellular plastic films (e.g., solid PVC/PE films without bubbles) | 39.2% | Base: 4.2%, Section 301: 25.0%, Section 122: 10% |
3920.99.10.00 |
Other plastic wall decor films, material: plastic, form: film, residual category, no obvious conflict | Catch-all for other plastic plates, sheets, film, foil, and strip (e.g., specific polymer types not listed above) | 41.0% | Base: 6.0%, Section 301: 25.0%, Section 122: 10% |
3926.40.00.90 |
Other plastic wall decor films, material: plastic, form: film, part of decorative items, use: other decorations | Finished decorative accessories (e.g., plastic wall decals, ready-to-hang decor) | 15.3% | Base: 5.3%, Section 301: 0.0%, Section 122: 10% |
🔍 Critical Insight:
- 3919 vs. 3920: If the film is self-adhesive (stickers, tapes), it generally falls under 3919. If it is non-adhesive (plain sheets, bubble wrap rolls, shrink film), it generally falls under 3920.
- 3926: This code is for finished articles of plastic. If your "bubble wrap" is sold as a finished decorative product (e.g., pre-cut wall art with bubble texture), it might qualify for 3926, which has a significantly lower tariff (15.3% vs 40%+). However, bulk bubble wrap for packing is almost never classified here.
💰 III. 2026 Latest Tariff Rate Details (Including Surcharges & Policy Add-ons)
✅ Applicable Country: USA (US)
✅ Origin: China (CN)
✅ Effective Date: November 10, 2025 (and subsequent imports)
🎯 1. 3919.90.50.60 & 3919.10.20.55 —— Self-Adhesive Plastic Films / Wall Decor Films
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Base Tariff | 5.8% (ad valorem) |
| Section 301 Surcharge | +25.0% (USITC Footnote) |
| Section 122 Surcharge | +10.0% (China-specific) |
| Total Rate | 40.8% |
| Tax Calculation | CIF Value × 40.8% |
| De Minimis Eligibility | ❌ No (High value threshold, not eligible for $800 exemption) |
| Legal Basis | Section 301: 17 CFR 301.02 → Section 122 → USITC: 3919.90.50.60 |
📌 Explanation:
- 3919 covers self-adhesive plastics. If your bubble wrap is a simple roll without adhesive, do not use this code.
- These codes attract the highest penalty (40.8%) due to the cumulative effect of Base + 301 + 122 tariffs.
🎯 2. 3920.99.20.00 —— Non-Cellular Plastic Films (Non-Woven, Non-Reinforced)
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Base Tariff | 4.2% |
| Section 301 Surcharge | +25.0% |
| Section 122 Surcharge | +10.0% |
| Total Rate | 39.2% |
| Tax Calculation | CIF Value × 39.2% |
| De Minimis Eligibility | ❌ No |
| Legal Basis | Section 301: 17 CFR 301.02 → Section 122 → USITC: 3920.99.20.00 |
📌 Explanation:
- 3920 covers non-self-adhesive plastic films.
- Note: Standard "Bubble Wrap" is often cellular (air-filled). If it is truly cellular, it might be classified under 3921 (Other plates, sheets, film, etc., cellular plastics). However, the provided data only lists 3920.99.20.00 as a fallback for "non-cellular." If your product is cellular bubble wrap, you may need a different HS code (e.g., 3921.13 or 3921.90), which is not in the provided<DATA>. Proceed with caution if using 3920 for cellular bubble wrap.
🎯 3. 3920.99.10.00 —— Other Plastic Films (Catch-All)
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Base Tariff | 6.0% |
| Section 301 Surcharge | +25.0% |
| Section 122 Surcharge | +10.0% |
| Total Rate | 41.0% |
| Tax Calculation | CIF Value × 41.0% |
| De Minimis Eligibility | ❌ No |
| Legal Basis | Section 301: 17 CFR 301.02 → Section 122 → USITC: 3920.99.10.00 |
📌 Explanation:
- This is a residual code. Use it only if the product doesn't fit specific sub-headings. It has the highest total tax (41.0%) among the 3920 options.
🎯 4. 3926.40.00.90 —— Other Decorative Articles of Plastic
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Base Tariff | 5.3% |
| Section 301 Surcharge | 0.0% |
| Section 122 Surcharge | +10.0% |
| Total Rate | 15.3% |
| Tax Calculation | CIF Value × 15.3% |
| De Minimis Eligibility | ❌ No |
| Legal Basis | Section 301: Excluded/Not Applicable → Section 122 → USITC: 3926.40.00.90 |
📌 Explanation:
- This is the MOST COST-EFFICIENT code in the provided list.
- However, it requires the product to be a finished decorative article.
- Risk: If you ship bulk bubble wrap rolls for packaging, customs will likely reject 3926 and reclassify it to 3920/3919, resulting in back taxes + penalties.
- Opportunity: If you sell plastic wall decals or finished decorative films that have a "bubble" texture for aesthetic purposes, 3926 is viable.
🛠️ IV. Customs Clearance Practical Advice (Combat Pitfalls)
✅ 1. Documentation Checklist (Non-Negotiable)
| Document | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| ✅ Product Specification Sheet | ✔️ | Must clearly state: Material (PE/PVC), Thickness, Width, Length, Adhesive vs. Non-Adhesive, Cellular vs. Non-Cellular. |
| ✅ Product Photos | ✔️ | Show the roll, the bubble structure (if any), and any packaging labels. |
| ✅ Commercial Invoice | ✔️ | Description must match HS Code logic. E.g., "Plastic Wall Decor Film, Self-Adhesive" for 3919. |
| ✅ Packing List | ✔️ | Net weight/Gross weight. |
| ✅ Certificate of Origin | ✔️ | If claiming any exemptions (though unlikely for China origin on these codes). |
| ✅ Third-Party Test Report | ✔️ | RoHS, REACH (if applicable to target market). |
✅ 2. Declaration Strategy (Key Mantra)
🔥 "Self-Adhesive = 3919, Non-Adhesive = 3920, Finished Decor = 3926!"
| Scenario | Correct HS Code | Error Consequence |
|---|---|---|
| Self-Adhesive Wall Sticker/Film | 3919.90.50.60 / 3919.10.20.55 |
Misclassified as 3920 → Possible penalty + rate mismatch |
| Non-Adhesive Plastic Film Roll | 3920.99.20.00 / 3920.99.10.00 |
Misclassified as 3919 → Customs may reject as "non-adhesive" |
| Bulk Bubble Wrap (Packing Material) | Not in Data (Likely 3921 or 3920) | Using 3926 → HIGH RISK OF AUDIT & REJECTION |
| Finished Decorative Wall Art (Plastic) | 3926.40.00.90 |
Using 3920 → Overpaying ~25% in tariffs |
✅ 3. Special Circumstances Handling
| Scenario | Handling Advice |
|---|---|
| Bubble Wrap with Bubbles (Cellular) | Warning: The provided data lists 3920 as "non-cellular." If your product is cellular bubble wrap, it likely falls under 3921.13 (Polyethylene) or 3921.90. Do not force it into 3920.99.20.00 without verifying cellular status. |
| OEM Custom Decor | Provide design files to prove it is a "finished decorative article" (3926) if you want the lower 15.3% rate. |
| Mixed Containers | Do not mix 3919 (self-adhesive) and 3920 (non-adhesive) in one shipment without clear segregation. Customs may apply the highest rate to the entire shipment if not declared separately. |
🌍 V. Global Market Clearance Comparison (2026 Latest)
| Country/Region | Recommended HS Code | Tariff | Certification | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 🇺🇸 USA | 3920.99.20.00 / 3926.40.00.90 |
39.2% - 41.0% (3920) 15.3% (3926) |
None specific | High tariffs due to Section 301 + 122. |
| 🇨🇳 China | 3920.99.20.00 |
~5-10% | None | Low import tariffs. |
| 🇪🇺 EU | 3920.20 (PE) / 3919.10 |
~5-12% | REACH, RoHS | No Section 301 equivalent, but VAT applies. |
| 🇬🇧 UK | 3920.20 |
~5-12% | UKCA | Post-Brexit rules apply. |
📌 Conclusion:
- USA is the most expensive market for plastic films due to Section 301 and 122 tariffs.
- Strategy: If your product is truly a finished decorative item, strive for 3926.40.00.90 to save 25% in tariffs.
- Risk: Bulk bubble wrap for packing cannot use 3926. It must use 3920/3921 and accept the ~40% tax.
📌 VI. Common Errors & Pitfall Guide (Blood & Tears Lessons)
❌ Error 1: Labeling "Bubble Wrap" as "Plastic Decorative Film" to use 3926
👉 Consequence: Customs inspection reveals it's bulk packing material → Reclassification to 3920 → Back taxes + 25% penalty.
❌ Error 2: Using 3919 (Self-Adhesive) for Non-Adhesive Films
👉 Consequence: Customs may reject the declaration because the product description doesn't match "Self-Adhesive." Delay in clearance.
❌ Error 3: Ignoring "Cellular" vs "Non-Cellular"
👉 Consequence: 3920.99.20.00 specifies non-cellular. If you ship cellular bubble wrap, you should use 3921. Misclassification leads to audits.
❌ Error 4: Assuming De Minimis ($800) Applies
👉 Consequence: Plastic films from China do NOT qualify for de minimis exemptions under current Section 122/301 rules. Small shipments are still taxed.
✅ Correct Approach:
"PE Bubble Wrap, Non-Adhesive, Cellular Plastic Film, Roll, 100m Length, Thickness 100 Microns, For Packing Use"
HS Code: Likely 3921.13.00.00 (Cellular PE) or 3920.99.20.00 (if non-cellular).
Note: The provided data does not cover 3921. If you must use the provided data, ensure the product is non-cellular and non-adhesive for 3920, or finished decor for 3926.
🎯 VII. Conclusion: Professional Declaration Saves Money!
🎯 Remember the Mantra:
🔹 "Self-Adhesive = 3919 (40.8%), Non-Adhesive = 3920 (39-41%), Finished Decor = 3926 (15.3%)!
🔹 "Bubble Wrap is Cellular (3921), Not 3920! Check the Air Bubbles!"
🔹 "Don't Fake Decor for Packing! Audit Will Find You!"
📌 Pro Tip:
If your product is bulk bubble wrap, do NOT use 3926.40.00.90. It is too risky. Instead, verify if it falls under 3921 (Cellular Plastics) which might have different rates not listed here. If you must use the provided list, 3920.99.20.00 is the safest for non-adhesive films, but ensure it is non-cellular.
📣 Immediate Action:
📞 Consult a Customs Broker to verify Cellular vs. Non-Cellular status.
📸 Provide high-res photos of the cross-section (to show bubbles or lack thereof).
📄 Apply for Advance Ruling if shipping large volumes of "Decorative Films."

关于 HS 编码归类
协调制度(HS)是由世界海关组织(WCO)制定的国际贸易商品分类标准。全球 200 多个国家采用 HS 系统作为海关关税、贸易统计和进出口监管的基础。
每个 HS 编码遵循以下层级结构:
- 章(2 位)——商品大类(例如:第 84 章:机器和机械设备)
- 品目(4 位)——章内的更具体分类
- 子目(6 位)——国际通用细分,所有 WCO 成员国统一使用
- 本国细分(8-10 位)——各国自行扩展的细分编码,如美国 HTSUS 10 位编码
正确的 HS 编码归类对于顺利通关、准确缴纳关税和遵守贸易法规至关重要。错误归类可能导致海关延误、多缴关税或罚款。
从CN进口到US时,适用的关税税率可能包括:
- 最惠国(MFN)税率——适用于 WTO 成员国的标准关税税率
- 普通税率——适用于无贸易协定国家
- 贸易救济关税——附加关税,如 301 条款(反倾销)、232 条款(国家安全)或反补贴税
